Why are people afraid of the dentist?

People are afraid of the dentist because of stories about what happened in the olden days when dentists used to just pull teeth out and not use drugs to stop the pain.

Another reason is when you are waiting for your appointment with the dentist and you hear scraping and loud drilling noises which intimidates people and makes them think that they will have their teeth drilled and that it will cause a lot of pain.

You imagine the worst that could happen and so when you go, you feel terrifyed and I'm sure that most of the dentists notice that. But when whatever you went in there for happens, you feel better than when you come in and you tell others about what happened.

If you needed to get braces or something, you would exaggerate it to people at school to make it sound like you are really brave, other people overhear and that's how the scared feeling continues for other people.

Wipe the etch off the forearm immediately. Follow by wiping the forearm with lots of gauze soaked in water. Advise the patient of the accident, show them where it occurred and advise them to watch for any reaction (redness, swelling, itching, etc.) and to notify you immediately of any symptoms. Reassure the patient that nothing is likely to occur but this is precautionary only. If possible, photograph the forearm before the patient leaves the office. Thoroughly document EVERYTHING about this incident in the patient's chart.

How long before pain goes away from full mouth teeth extraction?

I had a tooth extracted a month ago and still have inflammation in the gum and around the tooth next to what had been removed, he said it takes about two months to heal when I went back to the facial surgeon, he also said if it should still bother me after that to return and he would have to scrape the bone to smooth it down. Hope that helps.

All pain should be gone after a week.

Unless you have a dry socket, which occurs around four days after the tooth extraction and presents itself with a severe amount of pain. The pain can go away by itself, or the dentist can put a medication inside the extraction hole to make it heal more quickly.

[All pain should be gone after a week.] How long the pain lasts depends a lot on how old you are. At age 22, I had a bottom right wisdom tooth removed, and the pain was gone in three or four days. Earlier this month, at age 39, I had the bottom left wisdom tooth removed. 14 days later (today) I still feel like someone has been boxing with my while I wasn't looking. My oral surgeon says this is normal for older patients.

Get some CoQ10 (a vitamin supplement). CoQ10 works miracles helping mouth tissues to heal. Ideally, buy some 100Mg CoQ10 softgels and take four a day, spread out across the day. CoQ10 is found in cells throughout the body, but it is found in highest concentration in gum/mouth tissue cells. I take it 100Mg to 200Mg daily, but when I have any dental work planned I ramp-up the amount a couple of weeks in advance and continue until it has healed.

I learned about CoQ10 years ago, prior to having all four of my impacted wisdom teeth extracted. I took it prior to, and following their removal. When I went back to the dentist for a follow-up visit, the dentist remarked that he'd never seen anyone heal so quickly. I'm convinced the CoQ10 supplementation was responsible for my quick recovery.

My father had a very similar result - very quick healing following dental work and CoQ10 supplementation.

Does getting an adult tooth pulled hurt?

Without anesthetics, it would be. But this is almost never done without pain killers. For wisdom teeth, this may also include relaxants such as nitrous oxide.

Is it true that some people are now being born without wisdom teeth?

Yes, it is common.

Just as with tonsils, it is normal for a young child have large adenoids, and the simple fact that the adenoid pad is large is not a reason for surgery. Babies are born without visible tonsils and adenoids. The adenoids begin to grow in the first year of life, peak in size between age one and five, then slowly get smaller as a child grows. While the occasional teenager may still have adenoids big enough to cause blockage of the nose, this is rare and the adenoids typically shrink away before adolescence. http://www.kids-ent.com/website/pediatric_ent/tonsils_adenoids/index.html

Can you smoke marijuana before getting your wisdom teeth pulled?

You can smoke right up to the time you get them pulled, but you need to wait 48hrs after getting them pulled so you won't get a dry socket. Do not smoke for at least 48 hours after any extraction, to reduce the risk of having a dry socket. Two days at the least, 5 to greatly reduce your risk of dry socket, and even then, smoke as little as possible. Technically, I smoked the day of surgery and every day since, but I smoked very little, only a few small drags, and covered the area with wet gauze and rinsed lightly afterward. I got all 4 wisdoms removed; although all my teeth were erupted, he had to cut out the bottom two due to age (26) since the lower jaw bone is no longer spongy and the teeth can't be pulled. I'm on my sixth day and except for the first two days where I smoked a little more (I'm stupid, like a couple drags two or three times a day), I only have a couple drags in the morning (still with the gauze and rinse afterward - warm saltwater). I am a diehard smoker and I know I will go back to smoking once I am better healed (I see the dr. tomorrow for my check-up). While a part of me sees this as a perfect opportunity to quit and I even feel like I could, I just like smoking too much and I know that I'll start up again. We'll see. I have relied heavily on the patch and rather than focusing on how I'd like to smoke, I've just been picturing how bad it is in terms of healing to be smoking. So far, I have not had any dry sockets, but I also heard that dry socket can occur for up to 14 days after surgery (though highly unlikely). I think I'm in the clear but at this point I just want it to heal well - even when I do step outside to smoke, it just seems not worth it since I really can't enjoy it. If i can't smoke all I want and how I want, then it's really not worth it, especially with the threat of dry socket. I agree with everything the other person posted - smoke as little as possible and when you do, cover the holes with wet gauze (not dry or it will stick to the surgery site!!) and do not suck, place the cig in front of your mouth and just breath it in from the end without using your lips to grasp it. Drink water afterwards during the first 24 (if you stupidly decide to smoke like me), and rinse with saline solution after the first 24. Always rinse gently and be sure to follow all of your doctor's instructions for aftercare. I recommend getting a patch and smoking as little and as gently as possible (I would really recommend not at all, especially for the first 48, but I'm trying to be realistic). Just put on a patch (I found that it worked amazingly well) and keep your mind off of it as much as you can. I know it's hard, but it's only something you have to do for a little while and I was actually surprised at myself for being able to smoke next to nothing for the past six days. My doctor's instructions were not to smoke for at least 48 hours, others say 72 hours, and others say at least 4 days. Dry socket typically occurs within 3 to 5 days after surgery, so I would try to smoke as little and as carefully as possible for those 5 days. They say that a week without smoking is optimal as it allows for the best healing. Dry socket typically occurs after getting the lower wisdom teeth removed because there is poor blood circulation to that part of the mouth - smoking exacerbates this, which is why it increases your chances of dry socket, along with the toxic chemicals and smoke that can dissolve the clot and the suction from smoking. Get the patch and try not to think about smoking - the more you think about it, the more you'll want to smoke. Good luck!!

How old are you when you get the wisdom teeth pulled?

There is no exact age. Just when they start to grow in. They only should be pulled if they need to. If your mouth has room for them, you don't have to get them pulled. But if you do need to get them pulled (as they will mess up your teeth alignment made by braces or mouth is too small), get them pulled when they start to grow in. SEE A DOCTOR about this.
